Everything was amazing and will do more g trips only complaints are about g adventures choice in some of the accommodation- I know the 18-39 is basic but the level of some of the accommodation is not justified in my opinion

This was a great trip to explore each city. Personally, this felt a bit more independent type travel (exploring the city by yourself or if you made a friend with them) vs other Contikis (more time with the group). Hotels were great and fantastic locations (centrally located near metros and the main train station). Fantastic free time add ons as well.
Majestic Istanbul, imperial Vienna, romantic Paris ... we’ve composed an exceptional journey by private train and luxury river cruise to highlight these legendary cities and a plethora of lesser-known marvels in between. Begin by gliding your way through 7 scenic nations aboard the Golden Eagle Danube Express. You’ll stop in Champagne, France, for a vineyard tour and tasting, listen to live saxophone music echo through the stone halls of the Postojna caves, and much more. Then follow the path of the Seine River through Normandy to stroll Monet’s lush gardens at Giverny, sample camembert and crisp apple cider at a countryside farm, and sit for a private concert at the Rouen Cathedral.
The Atlantic Coast biking holiday route represents a week in the freshest, lightly salty air imaginable. A boost to both body and mind. As you cycle southwards from the Galician coastal region in the north, the beauty of continuously changing views over the vast Atlantic will impress itself on your mind and soul.
Taste both Galician and Portuguese seafood. Encounter latter-day pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago, with whom you share a few kilometres. Meet the nicest fishermen and their wives who will welcome you and enjoy sharing their lifetime experiences and customs.
Stroll through the fish markets and watch them as they work. Visit Porto, one of Europe’s most beautiful cities, classified as a Unesco World Heritage. Learn about Port Wine and the unique culinary dimension associated with it. Dance on saltpans and bring back some excellent salt crystals from there. Taste, smell, meet and bask in the sun as you cycle gently along this beautiful coast and allow yourself to daydream.
After a great day cycling, the night will cherish you with nothing less than the freshest air conceivable.
